Bamboo Love 2012-04-17 As seen at the Vienna University Botanical Gardens. The local photo club has a theme of 'shades of green' for its monthly contest. When I spotted this collection of bamboo, and then noted the inscription, I thought it might work. I don't think it is sharp enough for submission, though (hand-held, high ISO, low DOF). I'll have to go back with a tripod.

What I've been doing 2011-11-01 Just to report what I've been doing the last two weeks. I've known since last winter that the garden hut needed a new roof, but put it off. Now it was urgent. The original roof was particle board covered only with tar paper. The winter snows had leaked through and swelled the particle board. So off to the local Home Depot clone and two weeks later the supports have been strengthened, a new plywood roof has been added with tar paper and tiles. So now back to taking pictures!
